Jaconé Surf Forecast and Surf Report

G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at what's shaping up for the region. The next couple of days are a bit of a write-off, but keep the faith because there's some real quality coming down the line. The water temp is sitting at 74°F, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

Alright, we're kicking off Sunday the 5th of July, but don't get too excited. Jaconé is seeing a 8ft SSW swell with a period of 12 seconds. That's a decent amount of water, but the wind is onshore and the vibe is marginal. The combined energy is solid at (1646), but the conditions are just not there. The afternoon gets even worse with the wind picking up. Let's move on.

Monday the 6th of July shows some real promise. The morning is the standout for the early part of the week. Swell drops to a clean 6ft from the S, with a period of 11 seconds. Best of all, there's a glassy, light NW offshore breeze making it perfect. The energy is good at (1058), and the report says it's excellent for experienced surfers. This is your best bet for a quality session early on. The afternoon stays clean with a cross-off wind, but that morning glass is the pick.

Tuesday the 7th of July morning looks good again, with 5ft from the SSE and glassy conditions. It's a bit smaller, but it'll be clean and fun. But watch out, the arvo turns to rubbish with a strong onshore wind.

The middle of the week from Wednesday the 8th through to Saturday the 11th is pretty quiet. We've got small, weak swell, mostly under 3ft, and the conditions are mixed. There's a glassy window on Thursday morning with a 5ft SSW, 12-second groundswell, and clean offshore wind, which is surfable, but it's nothing to get too amped about.

Now, Sunday the 12th of July is where things get interesting again. The morning brings a juicy 6ft S swell with a 13-second period and glassy conditions. The energy is pumping at (1322) and it's calling for excellent surf for experienced surfers. This is another solid pick for the crew who know what they're doing.

The following week starts off okay on Monday the 13th and Tuesday the 14th, but conditions get a bit messy with onshore winds on the arvos.

Wednesday the 15th of July through Saturday the 18th is a rough patch. Swell drops right off, energy is weak, and the forecasts are mostly poor. There's a bit of a pulse on Wednesday morning with a gentle offshore, but the waves are small.

But then, hold onto your board. The real highlight of the entire outlook is Monday the 20th of July. The morning session is an absolute standout. We've got a 7ft S swell with a very long 15-second period. The combined energy is huge at (2104), making for some powerful, clean lines with a glassy surface. This is big, groundswell energy, so it'll be best suited to a point or reef setup rather than a beach break, as it might get a bit straight. It's clean and promising, but it's over a week away, so keep an eye on it. The afternoon on the 20th still has a 7ft swell with offshore wind, staying excellent.

So, to sum it up: Monday the 6th of July morning for the first call, and Monday the 20th of July morning for the one to circle on the calendar. The 20th is the real gem of the run.

Rusty.
